The GRDC Research Programme on Environmental Decision-Making

So what decisions are needed to preserve the environment?
How can support systems be set up to facilitate such decisions?

cross the world, environmental decisions are constantly being taken. Their settings vary, as do the people and groups involved. Environmental decisions occur within neighbourhoods, small businesses, corporate boardrooms, and in the offices of local, state and national governments. They involve different people with different backgrounds.

The objective of this programme is to understand the various processes, actors and preconditions of decision-making processes for environmental management.
